Following the recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) around the world, there is a rising demand for social distancing gear, such as PPE kits, as these kits are widely used by healthcare workers, who are the frontline warriors of the disease, for treating patients affected by the coronavirus disease. Coronavirus disease is a communicable disease, which is why, it is highly mandatory for healthcare workers to use disposable social distancing gear for their own safety. The increasing concern for the spread of the disease worldwide has raised the necessity amongst the government of nations around the world to deploy more number of healthcare workers, who are in need for such protective equipment to fight the disease, thereby influencing positively towards the growth of the global social distancing gear market.
